Finally Purchased a Sportline gti

Once I get parts fitted I will be taking photos . Can't wait get them all on should make a big difference hopefully. 

Looks good. Welcome 😁

Few updates the engine bay needed a good clean,  so I decided to give a good detail. This was first time cleaned engine bay so didn't know how  to attack it . I didn't want to soak the engine  cause problems. so used jet wash as little as possible. Spent a good 2 days cleaning section by section  with a lot of degreaser it's not perfect no way near still got a lot to do but I was happy with progress so far . I managed to fit Rocker cover , Radiator cowling , expansion tank , radiator cover and  Engine oil cap , rain tray , & rubbers & radiatior warning stickers . 

Before 

After 

New suspension fitted , first impressions only driven it few miles was it is  bit firmer But i need to give the suspension time to settle and wear in. The eibach springs definitely lowered the car 30-40mm. I also fitted 20mm spacers to give it big more aggressive look. Fitted  all new badges to the car made massive difference, and rear lights. I gave it another detail before winter comes .

Thanks for kind words eddygor!!

Next on the list is new stainless steel exhaust , any recommendations would be great help 😉.

looking good. you going to upgrade the exhaust system at some point?

Nice, i would have left the standard rear lamps on it though
They look far more classy

Thanks for kind words Gents ,
 Madone_si :   next on list is new exhaust  , I could do with help finding the right one ,to be honest  also need new carpets and new roof for summer. 
One seven one : as for Rear lights , never been fan of orange lights , got real dislike to the orange look , think makes car look tired , the side orange indicators had to go too for clear ones. each to there own and all that .
 Still got standard ones though for the future if need be . 

I would go with full custom made exhaust, 2.5" exhaust open up the gases getting out, maybe 4-1 downpipe with flexi joint so engine movement doesn't break exhaust at that lower point at the front. There is loads of information on this on various online forums.

Thanks for advice on the exhaust  👍🏼, I will be shopping round for one very soon, if anybody got any links to a good exhaust shstem be much appreciated lads . 

Been busy past few months with the sportline As well do with old cars we ( spend spend spend)  finally managed to get new steering wheel on , really happy with it , fews nice & comfortable goes well with the interior. Few pictures in the Sun ☀️
